Get ready for a wild ride! Director Illya Konstantin has just announced the World Premiere of his feature film debut, Night of Violence. It will debut at the opening night of London’s FrightFest 2025! This flick promises to blend brutal thrills with biting satire. It takes on the real-world horrors of corporate greed and the devastating human cost of the opioid crisis.
Get Ready for a Fight
In the film, a corporation is celebrating. They have just closed a major legal victory and launched their controversial drug, Azlepta. However, the celebration is cut short when masked townspeople posing as caterers launch a brutal attack. Trapped inside their office tower, a handful of employees scramble to survive as they’re hunted down one by one in a relentless, coordinated assault. With no escape and nowhere safe, the survivors are forced to fight back. Can they turn the tables in a desperate bid to make it through the night of violence?
A Fearless Debut
Ahead of the premiere, Konstantin shared his excitement about launching his first feature: “This is my debut feature, and I didn’t want to play it safe. We shot fast, with heart, and with an incredible team of actors and crew who gave everything. It’s scrappy, angry, satirical, and violent, but underneath all the madness is a question we’re still asking: What’s the price of survival in a world driven by profit?”
He added, “I’ve always believed horror is one of the last great frontiers for fearless storytelling. If Night of Violence punches you in the gut and maybe makes you laugh nervously while it does, then we’ve done our job. We’re proud of this one.”
Catch Night of Violence at FrightFest on Thursday, August 21st, 2025. The screening will begin at 11:00 pm (BST). Get your tickets early and head to ODEON Luxe Leicester Square Main Screen.
